I looked at buying a block of tofu the other day (had it in restaurants but never cooked it). It was like 6 quid, for a block the size of an average 2quid block of cheese, is that normal??? It was in an indie greengrocers tbf.
Perhaps a bit off topic because it’s baking, but this recipe is so basic whilst also being so great that it’s worth a plug.
Simple as this: equal weight of flour, butter and grated gruyere cheese. Breadcrumb the flour and butter, mix in the cheese, roll out to about 5mm, cut circles, put on a baking sheet, sprinkle with salt and pepper, bake at 180 for about ten minutes, cool.
I think I just get really annoyed at her (assuming very well paid) job being basically ‘faff around at home for a few hours a week deep frying stuff in a couple of different oils and pretending to notice the difference’
Yes. It doesn’t help that I have a friend who does something very similar, off the back of having earned a shitload of money in her twenties and then going full “hobby career”.
